Abstract : Many efforts have been made to isolate cellulose from various biomass sources. Peanut shell cellulose available
as waste biomass was graft copolymerized with acrylamide monomer by simultaneous gamma irradiation. Recently,
particular attention has been paid to producing pollutant adsorbents from cellulosic polymers due to their advantages of
being abundant, rapidly renewable, and biodegradable in nature. Various concentrations of acrylamide and irradiation doses
were applied for grafting. The structures and properties of the original cellulose and the prepared grafted celluloseacrylamide
were characterized using different analytical tools such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and infrared
spectrometer analysis (FTIR). The effect of radiation dose and monomer concentration on grafting efficiency and swelling
degree were also studied. The grafting efficiency increased with the increasing in radiation dose which was found to be
inversely proportional to swelling degree. The increasing in monomer concentration was directly proportional to the grafting
efficiency, however, led to decreasing in swelling degree.
